DRAWING FOR BEGINNERS Part 4: How to Draw What You See

In Part 4 of this Drawing for Beginners course, we cover how to draw what you see by first looking at the science of drawing and why drawing accurately can be difficult. I then walk through simple setup changes and a drawing technique that show you how to draw anything you see, regardless of the subject.

Oh my GOD this video is gold. I’m a few years into my art journey and at a plateau with the basics again because nobody seems to want to explain how drawing with simple shapes actually works. Thank you SO much!!!

I’d seen people use shapes but they’ve never explained why they were doing it or how, so this video is really useful thanks

Ive just gotten back into pencil drawing after a few years digital and then a good old break so feel like im starting over. i learned more from this video than i have in the last two weeks. bravo!

I actually used to make only circles for the head and some straight lines for the eyes, nose and mouth, but I never thought to do more figures for the rest of the body, thank you so much, with this, I won’t have to just throw lines randomly for make the arms or legs hahah 🥳🤩
